If they don't get it straightened out soon, a lot of folks are going to be calling the street home! At times I truly wonder if the 'good ole boys' in D.C. have a handle on what is most important! It certainly isn't posturing to get in the White House soon, so misguided in my humble opinion! sam

Re:
Thanks so much, RR. I heard somebody on tv last night trying to clue my fellow citizens in about the rest of the world: What do people in many other countries get for their tax dollars:
Universal health coverage, college educations, guaranteed paid vacations, maternity benefits, pensions, disability and unemployment assistance.
What do US citizens receive for their tax dollars:
A bloated defense department which is actually a special interest junta, so of course
Unending wars
Huge subsidies to corporations which do not create jobs or stimulate the economy
Tax shelters and deep cuts for our wealthiest, which have been proven to help no-one except the recipients.

Even worse in the US than it is over here. At least we all get free medical treatment, and it's good treatment too. Hope things improve for you and your country.

This is a sad case Ray it is becoming harder to get treatment here, but there is so much waste in many things and what is more important than health. Something might turn one has to keep hoping and so many wasting their lives.
